Ler em português Mama has a soft spot for a little mischief. A fabulous costume, a table full of friends, someone ordering another round just as their favourite song comes on. So, for Halloween in Lisbon in 2026 , we are giving the spooky season a proper Mama welcome. From 24 October to 1 November , Mama’s Spooky Halloween at Mama Shelter Lisboa brings little chefs into the kitchen, families together over brunch and the whole gang into the restaurant for two nights of Halloween celebrations. There will be pizza-making, face painting, Mimosas, Bellinis and costumes with enough personality to deserve their own photograph. Come with your favourite people. Mama will make room for the fun. And because Halloween falls on a Saturday this year, there is every reason to give that outfit a proper outing. Perhaps two. We know how much effort went into those vampire cheekbones.

Aprons on, imaginations ready: our little chefs get to make something delicious and enjoy their own creations afterwards. There is something lovely about watching children take charge of their lunch. The concentration. The proud faces. The very personal interpretation of where a pizza topping should go. Add a Halloween costume and you have a rather good Saturday afternoon in the making. Spooky Petit Chef returns on Saturday 31 October , bringing the same playful spirit to Halloween day itself. Both sessions run from 12:00 to 14:00 , at €23 per child .

You can keep up with the latest announcements through @mamashelterlisboa and Mama’s agenda . That costume deserves a moment in the spotlight Some looks are too good to leave in the camera roll. Alongside the Halloween celebrations, Mama is hosting a photo costume contest : share your look, give it a name and invite your friends to vote. Mama’s team will also select photos to appear on the screens at the venue, so your carefully assembled creation could enjoy its own little moment of fame. The Halloween contest page is where the costume parade comes together. Entries and voting close on Sunday 1 November at 06:00, Lisbon time . The contest rules explain participation, voting and prizes. We suggest giving your costume a name worthy of all that effort. Count Snackula is already an excellent place to start.

There may be a few stories from the night before, another appearance from a favourite costume and plenty of reasons to bring everyone together again. You will find us at Rua Alexandre Herculano 51, Lisboa , near Avenida da Liberdade. From a little chef’s first pizza to the last dance of Halloween night, 24 October to 1 November 2026 is looking deliciously mischievous at Mama Shelter Lisboa.
